I've been playing Monster Hunter World for Xbox One almost every day since release. Had to get off my Warframe addiction somehow. Although I can't help but wonder if I've traded one problem for another...

The very thing that gives us humans our advanced cognitive abilities can also be our greatest weakness.

Been playing StarCraft II and Heroes of the Storm with a close friend. She likes to play the co-op mode of the former with me, and the latter we usually play AI matches in. Recently, Fenix from the original StarCraft made it into Heroes of the Storm so I worked my ass off to acquire the gold I needed to purchase him to play. Marc Graue, who voices Talandar in StarCraft II, has taken the role of Fenix here; I suspect Blizzard wanted to make his voice consistent with the Purifier character who initially inherited his name.

Speaking of the original StarCraft, I've been poking at StarCraft Remastered lately, trying to muddle through the campaign mode. The gameplay is personally not to my taste, honestly; even though the graphics are updated, it's still the original StarCraft underneath, and with that comes the original's clunkiness and user-hostile interface. Then again, I guess it was good enough for the people who've been playing it for years and still play it today; I started with StarCraft II, so I've been spoiled by its conveniences.

It took me far more attempts than I'd like to admit to take out Skull Man. His attacks are all actually quite easy to avoid. Then again, I somehow managed to die to Toad Man the first time I played through this game; he's probably the easiest Robot Master boss in Mega Man history.

Also, this is my 117th post; if you're a Halo player like myself, you probably know the significance of this number.
